AHF Africa – A Global Movement
Speaking with three prominent leaders in the overseas efforts of AHF.
GUEST BIOS:
Peter Reis is Senior Vice President of AHF, supervising multiple divisions and disciplines both in the U.S. and overseas— including the Asia Bureau and the Global Quality Team. He’s been with AHF for 27 years. Bio
Penninah “Penny” Lutung is the AHF’s Bureau Chief for Africa Programs, leading programs in 13 countries across Africa. She’s been with AHF for 18 years. LinkedIn
Ambassador Angelina Wapakhabulo has been with AHF since 2001 in various roles, including Chair of AHF Uganda Cares. She currently serves as a member of the AHF Board and Global Vice Chair. About Amb. Wapakhabulo
CORE TOPICS + DETAILS:
[3:14] – The Cost of Being First
On the decision to make an effort in Africa
The team discusses spending ‘money we didn’t have to make an impact on the world.’ Sometimes, the cost of being a first mover in a moral mission is high. But when you know that you’re on the side of a worthwhile cause, the cost is always worth the outcome
[12:28] – Building Local Trust
Laying a foundation for critical work
Dr. Penninah describes the effort involved in building a connection between their Africa patients and the AHF team. One key element of this trust is the process of hiring local nationals, who have been instrumental in establishing programs in Africa that lead to greater public health.
[19:10] – Connected with Governments, Free from Politics
The careful balancing act that’s made AHF successful worldwide
Peter describes the hallmark of AHF programs in which they work closely in partnership with national and local governments but remain politically impartial and separate from political posturing and messaging. This is an essential trait that keeps AHF able to access communities that need their help the most without alienating the leaders and politicians who can serve as valuable partners.
[23:59] – Accepting Limitations
When you can’t do everything
Based on the trust and service the AHF provides for local communities, those communities often ask AHF members to do even more outside the organization’s scope. While they can sometimes help, such as setting up a borehole to provide clean fresh water to a community in Nigeria, they must sometimes accept that they can’t serve every need, all the time.
